Building Under Construction Collapses At Thampanoor

The new terminal complex being built by KSRTC at Thampanoor partially collapsed late on Thursday night. 20 labourers, who were working on the spot when the incident occured had a narrow escape, with one sustaining injuries.

The injured person has been identified as Raphiq from Kollam. The severity of his injuries is yet to be known.
The police and the fire force who rushed to the spot are still searching for men who might be trapped beneath the rubble. It is still unclear what exactly caused the partial collapse of this building still under construction. The police have taken labour supply contractor Rajan into custody for questioning.
